#BeeAnAngel and Support Aussie Bees

#BeeAnAngel and Help Us #SaveAussieBees

#BeeAnAngel Day is a global event to #BeeKind and spread the love to those that need it the most. This year, we are asking you to join in on this amazing movement and remember our littlest livestock farmers - Aussie beekeepers.

Australia's beekeepers have just experienced devastating bushfire and years of intense drought. Thousands of hives were burnt, and remaining honeybees struggle to survive after so much of their food source - flowers and plants - was destroyed.

One-third of Australia's agricultural industry relies on bees as pollinators. Without bees, many of the shelves at local supermarkets would be empty and the farmers' market favourites that we take for granted would be in short supply! Act now to safeguard our littlest livestock who are a vital part of our food supply.

Join the #BeeAnAngel movement by creating a fundraising page or making a donation. Your support makes a direct impact in the lives of disaster-affected beekeepers.
